A Teen Place AGE 1- PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1,1878 &*••> •• ' When is a bed not just for sleeping? When it 's in a teenager's room, of course. If you think you have space problems-look at your teenager's room. Sc many activities take place there­ from homework to "hanging out," that there's rarely enough room for it all. Your teenager's personal space is undoubtedly limited, so the room is ripe for careful thought and planning and multi-use furnishings. Begin with the bed-it should provide for seating, as well as sleeping needs and preferably even accom­ modate an overnight guest. A desk or work table is an­ other essential - perhaps it can be part of a component wall system. You'll also want to provide room for books, records, audio equip­ ment, clothing, collections, and all the ctcctcra tccn agers seem to require. Thoughtful solutions con­ sider material, style and placement of furnishings to maximize living space. Creating a girl's room that's inviting, functional and easy to maintain and ex­ presses the occupant's per­ sonality can be a challeng­ ing and successful venture. Here, a custom designed oak trundle bed serves as a sofa, sleeping place and guest bed. The longlife and durability of oak coupled with the classic design and careful craftsmanship of the bed give it a life beyond a child's room--it would be a great first apartment item. An antique dresser, con­ structed of birds eye maple, with solid maple faux bam­ boo trim, rescued from among family treasures of years past, itt, both a good example of hardwood's long life and the freedom and ver­ satility possible with to­ day's popular decorating fashion of mixing periods, styles and woods in a room. The guiding factor in ec­ lectic. or mix and match, decorating that works is in choosing pieces that func­ tion in the new setting and that are compatible in scale and material. The combina­ tion in this room is a win­ ning one - the dresser draw­ ers do traditional duty, housing clothing while other storage needs are accommo­ dated by an arrangement of open shelves on the facing wall (their reflection ap­ pears in the dresser mirror). Books, display, music equip­ ment and desk space is in­ cluded in the white painted hardwood shelf system com­ posed of various sized indi­ vidual units. Add a reclaimed and paint­ ed rocker, a bright fluffy rug, an accommodating poo­ dle and bamboo window shade and the setting is complete for all of a growing girl's needs. For a teenage boy, the de­ sign concerns are the same- function, good looks and easy care-just add his per­ sonal color and style prefer­ ences. This boy's room re­ flects his desire for a dra­ matic yet tailored look. A pair of oak wall units on facing walls take care of the functional requirements- storage, work and play. The comfortable couch can also become a double bed for sleep-over guests. Decora­ tive interest and innovative function combine in the cus­ tom designed carpet with a graphic design that contin­ ues up the wall to become a tack surface above the desk area of the second wall unit. These two rooms have more in common than meets the eye. While they are dra­ matically different in 3tylc and ambiance, they both uti­ lize furnishings that are of classic design, work well in their present situation, are constructed of quality Deaths MAYIWE E.
